QUE ES WICCA?
El siguiente artículo describe cómo Wicca se basa en las viejas tradiciones de la brujería.. Si bien esto es cierto, simplemente nos gustaría aclarar que la brujería y la wicca, aunque similar en muchos aspectos, no son lo mismo. Uno puede ser una bruja, sin ser wicca, así como una persona puede ser cristiana, sin ser bautista. La Wicca es una religión reconocida, mientras que la brujería en sí no se considera una religión. Por lo tanto, Wicca podría describirse mejor como una religión moderna, basado en antiguas tradiciones de brujería.
Al contrario de lo que quieren creer quienes eligen perseguirnos o mentirnos sobre nosotros, Wicca es un lugar muy pacífico, forma de vida armoniosa y equilibrada que promueve la unidad con lo divino y todo lo que existe.
Wicca es una profunda apreciación y asombro al ver el amanecer o el atardecer., el bosque a la luz de una luna resplandeciente, a meadow enchanted by the first light of day. It is the morning dew on the petals of a beautiful flower, la suave caricia de una cálida brisa de verano sobre tu piel, or the warmth of the summer sun on your face. Wicca is the fall of colorful autumn leaves, and the softness of winter snow. It is light, and shadow and all that lies in between. It is the song of the birds and other creatures of the wild. It is being in the presence of Mother Earths nature and being humbled in reverence. When we are in the temple of the Lord and Lady, we are not prone to the arrogance of human technology as they touch our souls. To be a Witch is to be a healer, un profesor, un buscador, un dador, and a protector of all things. If this path is yours, que lo recorras con honor, luz e integridad.

Wicca es un sistema de creencias y una forma de vida basada en la reconstrucción de tradiciones precristianas originarias de Irlanda., Escocia, and Wales. While much of the information of how our ancestors lived, adorado y creído se ha perdido debido a los esfuerzos de la iglesia medieval para borrar nuestra existencia de la historia, Tratamos de reconstruir esas creencias lo mejor que podemos con la información que está disponible..
Gracias a los descubrimientos arqueológicos, we now have basis to believe that the origins of our belief system can be traced even further back to the Paleolithic peoples who worshiped a Hunter God and a Fertility Goddess. With the discovery of these cave paintings, se estima que hay alrededor 30,000 años, que representa a un hombre con cabeza de ciervo, y una mujer embarazada de pie en círculo con otras once personas, it can reasonably be assumed that Witchcraft is one of the oldest belief systems known in the world toady. These archetypes are clearly recognized by Wiccan as our view of the Goddess and God aspect of the supreme creative force and predate Christianity by roughly 28,000 años convirtiéndolo en un mero niño en el espectro del tiempo tal como lo conocemos.
Witchcraft in ancient history was known as “The Craft of the Wise” because most who followed the path were in tune with the forces of nature, tenía conocimientos de hierbas y medicinas, gave council and were valuable parts of the village and community as Shamanic healers and leaders. They understood that mankind is not superior to nature, la tierra y sus criaturas, sino que somos simplemente una de las muchas partes, both seen and unseen that combine to make the whole. As Chief Seattle said; “No somos dueños de la tierra, somos parte de ella". Estas personas sabias entendieron que lo que tomamos o usamos, debemos regresar en especie para mantener el equilibrio y el equilibrio. Claramente, modern man with all his applied learning and technology has forgotten this. Subsequently, Actualmente enfrentamos un desastre ecológico y una eventual extinción debido a nuestro hambre de poder y algunas piezas de oro..
Durante los últimos cientos de años, la imagen de la Bruja se ha asociado erróneamente con el mal, paganismo, and unrighteousness. In my humble opinion, estos conceptos erróneos tienen su origen en un par de lugares diferentes.
Empezar, the medieval church of the 15th through 18th centuries created these myths to convert the followers of the old nature based religions to the churches way of thinking. By making the Witch into a diabolical character and turning the old religious deities into devils and demons, Los misioneros pudieron atemorizar estas creencias que ayudaron en el proceso de conversión.. en segundo lugar, a medida que la ciencia médica comenzó a surgir, los hombres que participaron en estos estudios iniciales tenían un conocimiento muy deficiente de la fisiología femenina, especially in the area of a women’s monthly cycles. The unknowns in this area played very well with the early churches agenda lending credence to the Witch Hunters claims and authority. The fledgling medical professions also stood to benefit greatly from this because it took the power of the women healers away giving it to the male physicians transferring the respect and power to them.
Unfortunately these misinformed fears and superstitions have carried forward through the centuries and remain to this day. This is why many who follow these nature oriented beliefs have adopted the name of Wicca over its true name of Witchcraft to escape the persecution, El acoso y la desinformación asociados con el nombre de Witchcraft and Witch sin mencionar la mala publicidad que la prensa y Hollywood nos han dado simplemente para generar ganancias..
Que es la brujería:
La brujería es un sistema espiritual que fomenta el libre pensamiento y la voluntad del individuo., encourages learning and an understanding of the earth and nature thereby affirming the divinity in all living things. Most importantly however, it teaches responsibility. We accept responsibility for our actions and deeds as clearly a result of the choices we make. We do not blame an exterior entity or being for our shortcomings, weaknesses or mistakes. If we mess up or do something that brings harm to another, we have no one but ourselves to blame and we must face the consequences resulting from those actions. No ifs, ands or buts and no whining…
Reconocemos los ciclos de la naturaleza, the lunar phases and the seasons to celebrate our spirituality and to worship the divine. It is a belief system that allows the Witch to work with, no en súplica a las deidades con la intención de vivir en armonía y lograr el equilibrio con todas las cosas.
Los hechizos que hacemos involucran curación., amor, armonía, wisdom and creativity. The potions that we stir might be a headache remedy, un tónico frío, or an herbal flea bath for our pets. We strive to gain knowledge of and use the natural remedies placed on this earth by the divine for our benefit instead of using synthetic drugs unless absolutely necessary.
Wiccan cree que el espíritu del Uno, Goddess and God exist in all things. In the trees, lluvia, flores, el mar, in each other and all of natures creatures. This means that we must treat “all things” of the Earth as aspects of the divine. We attempt to honor and respect life in all its many manifestations both seen and unseen.
Wiccan aprende y venera el don de la naturaleza de la creación divina celebrando los ciclos del sol., moon and seasons. We search within ourselves for the cycles that correspond to those of the natural world and try to live in harmony with the movement of this universal energy. Our teachers are the trees, ríos, lagos, prados, mountains and animals as well as others who have walked this path before us. This belief creates a reverence and respect for the environment, y toda la vida sobre la tierra.
También veneramos los espíritus de los elementos de la Tierra., Aire, Fire and Water which combine to manifest all creation. From these four elements we obtain insight to the rhythms of nature and understand they are also the rhythms of our own lives.
Porque las brujas han sido perseguidas durante tantos siglos, creemos en la libertad religiosa primero! No vemos nuestro camino como la única manera de alcanzar la espiritualidad., but as one path among many to the same end. We are not a missionary religion out to convert new members to think the same as we do. We are willing to share our experience and knowledge with those who seek our wisdom and perspective however. We believe that anyone who is meant for this path will find it through their own search as the Goddess speaks to each of us in her time and way. Wiccan practice tolerance and acceptance toward all other religions as long as those faiths do not persecute others or violate the tenant of “Harm None.”
Lo que no es la brujería:
Más información sobre la brujería está disponible en la sección de Preguntas Frecuentes, pero en el ínterin, aquí están los puntos principales.
Witchcraft or Wicca is not a cult. We do not proclaim ourselves to be spokespersons for the divine or try to get others to follow us as their leaders.
We do not worship Satan or consort with Demons. Satan is a Christian creation and they can keep him. We do not need a paranoid creation of supreme evil and eternal damnation to scare us into doing the right thing and helping others. We choose to do the right thing and love our brothers and sisters because it IS the right thing and it feels good to do it. I suppose it is a maturity thing.
No sacrificamos animales o humanos porque eso violaría nuestro inquilino básico de "Harm None". Cualquiera que haga y diga ser un Wiccan o una Bruja está mintiendo.
We have no need to steal or control the life force of another to achieve mystical or supernatural powers. We draw our energy from within, nuestra relación personal con lo divino y la naturaleza.
We do not use the forces of nature or the universe to hex or cast spells on others. Again, “Harm None” is the whole of the law.
Witches have a very strict belief in the Law of Three which states that whatever we send out into our world shall return to us three fold either good or bane. With this in mind, a “True Witch” would hesitate in doing magick to harm or manipulate another because that boomerang we throw will eventually come back to us much larger and harder then when we threw it.
Esto no quiere decir que las brujas sean perfectas., we are human too just like everyone else and make mistakes and errors in judgment. Just as there are parents who love and nurture their children, there are parents who abuse their children. As there are many who devote their lives to giving and helping mankind, likewise there are those who devote their lives to taking advantage of and using people for their own gain. Unfortunately the same flaws in human nature applies to witches too.
La mayoría de nosotros nos esforzamos continuamente por considerar todos los resultados potenciales de nuestros pensamientos y acciones haciendo una pausa para considerar seriamente las consecuencias antes de emprender un ritual., spell or rite that could go astray. It is when we follow the path with the love of the Goddess in our hearts and adhere to the basic tenant of the Reed that our works are beneficial and we achieve harmony and balance with all things.
The heart of Wicca is not something summed up into a few short words and can often take on different meaning to each since the Lord and Lady touch us in different ways. To gain a fuller understanding of the Craft, I urge you visit the other pages on this site as well as following the links to a select group of exceptional Wiccan and Witchcraft sites. Through the wisdom and words set down through the ages, you will find that you are able to understand the basis of our beliefs and how they may apply to you. Your inner voice will also quickly let you know if the intent of what you are reading is for superficial purposes to benefit self instead of working to benefit the whole. Remember to read with your heart, porque es cuando ves la vida y el mundo con tu corazón y espíritu que realmente obtienes una comprensión de lo que es la Wicca..
Sean bendecidos!
